Some years back, he was one of Nigeria’s finest actors with expert
delivery of lines and character. There was no film worth a mention at
that time that Ernest wasn’t featured. He was a darling to many
Nigeria’s movie viewers until he disappeared from the screens and for a
long time, nothing was heard of him. He also enjoyed a strong
relationship with another actress, Obot Etuk at the time to the extent
that Ernest moved in to live with Etuk in her Okota, Lagos house. Anyway, that was way back. For those who have been asking questions on
the whereabouts of Ernest, news of his present position may not interest
his fans.

This is because Ernest cuts a pitiable sight right now
as he is said to be suffering for stroke which has taken over almost
half of his body. Ernest told a national newspaper recently that he has
been down with stroke and was even admitted to the hospital as a result.
However, in his characteristic manner, Ernest was quick to blame
someone else for his predicament, the Nollywood industry and AGN
President, Ibinabo Fiberesima.

According to him, “I was in LASUTH
for 2 months, 3 days and for that long, nobody from Nollywood, not even
Ibinabo visited me. And she heard that I was admitted there. My friends
told her that I was down with stroke and she pretended as if she didn’t
hear.

I am a human being too. I am limping right now because I
have stroke and my people don’t care. I’m limping because the industry
is already messed up. A few weeks ago, He was spotted on Samuel Ekunola
Street, along Ago Palace Way, what we saw was baffling. The once upon a
time actor struggled to walk and he looked a pale shadow of his old
self. Although, he could still talk, he nonetheless struggled to make
use of his whole body.
When we probed further, it was gathered
that Ernest had come to visit an Uncle of his who had just passed on in
the area. On enquiry, a source said that Ernest is a regular visitor to
the house even before the Uncle died.
The source added that
Ernest had been in that condition for months and that people who know
him are as surprised as anyone else on the change in his health
condition.
